Customer Reviews

We have used air poppers for 30 years. We bought this one because it goes with our red toaster and blender, and for the on/off switch, which other brands don't have. However, it only pops about 60-70% of the kernals, compared to 90% in our other popper, a pretty high waste factor

First off I love Cuisinart products! Had no idea they made a hot air popcorn popper!I LOVE the red! Love the on/off switch! Love the size! Totally enjoyed the popcorn I used!All popcorn poppers leave unpopped kernals. Has nothing to do with the popper! Its the popcorn!! First time used it whirled 2 kernals out--to be expected there is no ""trap"" door to keep them from popping off the ship!Received another popper for Christmas took it back because it wasn't a hot air popper. Gave it a whirl anyway. Found I didn't care for the brand or type. Did a huge internet investigation found that this one had the most overall positive reviews. I bought it! It's a CUISINART!!! It works just like I expected it to!

This popper wastes a lot of popcorn. When you first turn it on it shoots out several popcorn kennels and at the end of the cycle there are still some left in the maker. In my popcorn bowl were also some at the bottom unpopped.It is hard to find the ""perfect"" popper- I don't think one exists! Sooooo... since I like the look of this popper (got it in red) & it stores nicely I guess it stays....

This is hands down, my all-time favorite kitchen purchase. I'll be honest...I wondered when we first bought it if this would eventually just wind up as part of the ""appliance graveyard"" - but this popcorn maker is used by everyone in our family, at least once a week. It's a healthy alternative to the microwave popcorn bags which I hear are one of the worst foods a person can consume. It pops without any oil so it feels light and airy...not heavily weighed down with oil and butter. It�s easy to clean and quick to pop. Yes�it does leave an occasional kernel in the button but what hot air popper doesn�t?!

I was disappointed with this Cuisinart air popper. It most definitely leaves a lot of kernels unpopped and up to 8 kernels will pop after the pop corner maker is turned off. Which can make a mess! I have had Presto popcorn makers in the past, and they do a considerable better job than the Cuisinart. I had hoped Cuisinart would make a good air popcorn maker

We almost didn't buy this popper based on reviews here. The video sold us on it. Glad that we went for it. We fill the little cap level to the top with popcorn, and pour it in. Put a big bowl in front of it and turn it on. Effortless popcorn with no mess. My son even makes his own now, which makes me really happy that he can choose a healthy snack after school.

We rinse out the butter bowl before it hardens. I've never had popcorn with so little effort both cooking and cleaning. We have about the same amount of leftover kernels that we've had with our old hot air popper and the stovetop one with the crank. Probably about a 98% pop rate.

We really like our new popcorn popper - it is exceptionally easy to use and no oil is required. Kernels simply pour into a popping chamber, and hot air sends up to ten cups of popcorn up and out the chute right into a bowl ( use a big bowl! ) . It all takes less than three minutes. We feel much better about this manner of popping corn over the dangerous microwave bags - two thumbs up from us

It was time to update my 25+ year old air popper as it was not BPA-free. This model is very similar to the unit I had previously, except it seems to run a bit less hot and it has an on/off switch. Some tips for successful popping:1. Make sure your popcorn is fresh. Stale popcorn that's been on your shelf for months is going to result in many unpopped kernels.2. Warm-up the machine for 30 seconds to one minute prior to adding popcorn.

I was disappointed in this product. I had high hopes given the manufacturer. I tried the popcorn maker with a small amount of kernels to see how it operated. It spit most of them out unpopped. Then I later tried a full load as directed. A few early kernels were spit out unpopped and then it began to pop kernels. Some landed in the bowl I set up at the exit, but others were fired across the counter and onto the floor. At the end a few more unpopped kernels were spit out. This is not how I expected the machine to operate

Wost hot air popper I have ever used. More unpopped kernals than a traditional oil popper. After using it twice and seeing so many unpopped kernals I decided to find out just how much wasn't popping. The third, and LAST, time I used it I measured the amount of kernals I put into the machine, 40 grams, and when it was finished measured the amount that did not pop, 11 GRAMS! If all you want is a nice looking machine to sit on your counter this may be it but DO NOT buy it for make popcorn

The Cuisinart popcorn maker is quiet, fast and simple to use. Light & easy to store. There is no cleanup except for the small, removable popcorn measurer / butter melting dish on top. To almost eliminate unpopped kernels, I run it a minute to warm the air & compartment up, then dump in the kernels. I also use a high-sided container or prop mine up to minimize the few popped kernels that fly over the top of the dish. Works great and fast for a single portion or for a small crowd.

I was skeptical buying this with all the reviews about waste. Not sure what these people are doing wrong. I routinely get 1-3 kernels un-popped. That's it! Love it! Big, fluffy, not greasy popcorn in seconds!

Someone gave me a similar air-pop popcorn maker when I went off to college. It turned out to be an essential and lasted for years. I gave one to each of my daughters when they left for college. It is much healthier than microwave popcorn and requires virtually no clean up.

I bought one for myself and was very pleased. Then I got another for my son and granddaughters. We both prefer using organic popcorn and being in control of the other ingredients. The butter melter works well, It is easy to clean (nothing to do!) and store. It's lightweight and FAST! Very few "old maid" unpeopled kernels left behind.

I wanted to start eating pop corn that was not always burnt in the micro and this is used on a very regular basis for making my caramel corn and plan on ordering another for grand daughter who fell in love with mine, every time she comes she has to make a batch to eat on her way back home.
